Desiree Perez is the Chief Operating officer at Roc Nation, an entertainment company. The company was founded in 2008 by American musician and business man Shawn Corey Carter alias Jay-Z. Perez has been part of the company since it was founded to date; Roc Nation is grateful for her presence as she has accomplished a lot for the brand. For instance, in 2008, she oversaw the signing a $150 million deal between Roc Nation and Live Nation. The deal, as agreed, would run for ten years. Sometimes next year the deal will have expired. It is unclear whether the two brands will enter into a new agreement or go their separate ways.

Insiders intimated that although Live Nation was willing to continue their touring deal with Roc Nation, it was unwilling to buy Roc Nation’s artist’s rights and recorded music. It is a well-known fact that revenues from recorded music have been dwindling year after year. Roc Nation’s artists that are likely to be affected include big names in the music industry such as Rihanna, Shakira, Meek Mill, Jay Cole, and Fat Joe among others.

Desiree was spotted with Jay doing what she does best: cutting deals. The lady in the company of Jay-Z visited Sir Lucian Grainge the CEO of Universal Music Group (UMG). Speculations were ripe that the two were in to broker a deal with UMG in the face of the expiration of the Live Nation’s deal. However, UMG insiders were quick to quash the high expectations that came with three business minds sitting together; the three failed to discuss Roc Nation and its deal with Live Nation. Roc Nation and UMG have worked together before; UMG has a distribution deal with Roc Nation.With Desiree’s aggressiveness, Roc Nation will soon announce a lucrative partnership. She has proven her capability to make lucrative deals.

Nationwide Title Clearing has come up with an innovative way of dealing with the problem of title defects that has threatened to cripple the real estate industry. According to the company’s management, they have launched a new interactive website. The company’s clients will now be able to order for property reports online. This service will hasten the ordering process and ensure the authenticity of the titles.

According to Nationwide Title Clearing (NTC), genuine property titles helps in hastening the transaction process and eliminating wrongful foreclosures. In the recent years, the increasing cases of title defects have forced many potential buyers to halt their purchases. This situation has slowed down the growth of the market. NTC’s strategy will reduce the risk of buyback and the inability of banks to foreclose, as the information on all residential properties in the United States will be readily available.

NTC notes that title defects are caused by different factors. This problem is commonly caused by individuals seeking to claim a property owned by someone else. The wording on the title documents has also been of major concern. In the United States, the wording varies from one area to another. For a title to be valid, it must adhere to the wording requirements of a given jurisdiction. Absence of important signatures such as those of property owner’s spouse has also contributed to title defects. Lastly, many people are seeking for titles without following due process. Such titles end up as defects.

The company’s clients can now access various property reports such as Assignment Verification Report Services, Tax Status (plus) Report, Tax Status Report, and Current Owner Report. NTC has channeled its energies towards developing accurate and up to date reports. NTC sources for the actual land records/data from the counties. They then authenticate such information using both automated and human verification process.
